Wedding weekend
We had a lovely weekend stay at the property - the property was very clean and there was a cream tea waiting for us which was a lovely touch. It had everything we needed and the owners were on hand if we needed anything.

Burrows was a beautifully presented and well equipped property, having everything needed for a countryside stay within easy reach of the sea. Huge advantage having a bath/ shower room for each bedroom.

A delightful, high standard, well equipped home from home tucked away in beautiful countryside.
We rented this property for a family weekend away on a trip down Memory Lane. The cottage is beautifully presented and maintained, very well equipped with many thoughtful touches. A bottle of Prosecco and a tray of scones, clotted cream and jam awaited us on arrival to mark the start of a memorable trip. We were able to bring our two dogs who settled in as if at home. There was good walking for the dogs on the doorstep and many places to eat and drink within easy driving distance. Perfect for anyone who wants to enjoy peace and quiet in this beautiful part of Devon.
